Configuring Firewall Settings

If your LifeSize system communicates with other systems through a firewall, you must
configure your firewall to allow incoming and outgoing traffic to the system through:
• TCP port 1720 (for H.323 call setup)
• UDP port 5060 (for SIP call setup)
• TCP port 5060 (for SIP call setup if TCP signaling is enabled for SIP calls). Refer to
"Configuring SIP Settings" on page 44.
• TCP port 5061 (for TLS signaling in SIP calls if TLS signaling is enabled). Refer to
"Configuring SIP Settings" on page 44.
• Required TCP and UDP ports in the range specified in Administrator Preferences :
Network : Reserved Ports. For more information about specifying the range of required
TCP and UDP ports, refer to "Restricting Reserved Ports" on page 40.
